How Economical Is Netflix (data Usage) In Nigeria by domack99(m): 1:17pm On Oct 26, 2019
There have been so much talk about Netflix in Nigeria. I believe Netflix is a very good alternative to DStv and other regular cable and satellite TV company.

But my concern is that Netflix is an internet base TV which means apart from the monthly subscription, subscribers still need to pay for internet service before making use of their money on Netflix.

So looking at the cost of internet in Nigeria, economically, is Netflix really an alternative to available cable providers in Nigeria?

Netflix guzzles data a lot.
don't try to use Netflix if you still find it difficult to download files larger than 1gb
its a data hog

There's several options like showbox and movies hd but you can't find em on playstore. Which are good without any subscription.

Even Netflix subscription is not that much compare with what you get on DStv.

The price of data is fair to a large extend however my concern is if I can download movies to watch later. If it not possible then neflix may not compete favourably with other providers in Nigeria. Even though data price is fair, some gsm operators have issues with quick exhaustion of data before expiry date. I rather opt in for others that allows download than streaming

Still not economical for spectranet wifi unless your area have access to fibre cable, you pay 10k for monthly unlimited sub.
